Saturday afternoon at the shack

Sorry Steve isn’t in focus!!!!

LSWC BBQ Night

This Wednesday, 27th, saw the LSWC host another BBQ night. These are usually well attended and enjoyed by our members.   With Members arriving the BBQ was fired up and out came the burgers and sausages. We again must thank Pam, G4STO, for getting the food for the evening event and as always it was well enjoyed all round. I for one, was rather full up by the time all was eaten up. Especially when all the sausages and burgers were gone out came a selection of cakes for pudding. With a cooling breeze and the sun setting a select … Continue reading →
